For the more Mamma Mia-obsessed bride, the perfect wedding dress would be a flowy, tiered dress. Pair it with whimsical accessories and your bridal party in mismatched yet coordinating dresses and you’re sure to have a day (and night!) to remember.

Mamma mia style wedding atmosphere

If you’re looking for a stylish and cozy way to decorate your wedding, look no further than the Mamma Mia style! This unique style combines the best of both worlds – the chicness of a classic Greek wedding with the warmth and comfort of a family-style gathering. Plus, it’s perfect for couples who want to create an inviting and intimate atmosphere on their big day.

Here are some tips:

1. Choose a warm color palette. Rich, earthy tones like burgundy, olive green, and gold will create an inviting and cozy vibe. Incorporate olive branches into your decor. They can be used as centerpieces, or in bouquets.

2. Use lots of candles and string lights. Candles add romance and ambiance, while string lights give off a soft, warm glow.

3. Decorate with vintage details. Old family photos, antique vases, and retro centerpieces will all help to create the Mamma Mia atmosphere.

4. Serve Mediterranean food.  Select a menu that features classic Greek dishes with a modern twist. Your guests will love indulging in delicious food while enjoying the beautiful surroundings. Also, create a signature cocktail for your wedding that incorporates fresh fruit and herbs native to Greece. This is a great way to add a personal touch to your event!

 

Mamma Mia-style wedding decorations

Apart from rich, earthy tones, a Mamma Mia–themed wedding is all about fun, festive decor with a Greek island vibe. To get the look, choose a white or cream color palette and add bold pops of blue and green. Think breezy linen tablecloths, fresh flowers, and lots of greenery. For a touch of glam, add gold accents like lanterns, vases, and candle holders. And don’t forget the all-important details like music and favors that tie everything together.

 

Mamma Mia party ideas

There are a few things that come to mind when you think of the Mamma Mia style – flowy silhouettes, pretty prints, and a carefree vibe. If you’re looking to channel this aesthetic for your destination wedding, I’ve got some Mamma Mia-inspired party ideas.

For starters, consider hosting a welcome party or rehearsal dinner at a waterfront restaurant or bar. The setting will be instantly reminiscent of the movie’s iconic opening scene, and you can even dress your bridal party in white to really capture the feel. As for the décor, string up some fairy lights and set out candles in mason jars for a romantic touch.

When it comes to the actual wedding day, there are plenty of ways to infuse a bit of Mamma Mia style. One idea is to have your ceremony outdoors with beautiful, Greek island seaside, scenery as your backdrop. For the reception, why not create a dance floor under the stars? You can also use fairy lights to create a magical atmosphere. As far as food goes, serve up traditional Greek dishes and your guests will love it!

Regarding music, some of my favorite Mamma Mia-style wedding songs include:

“I Do, I Do, I Do, I Do, I Do”
“Mamma Mia”
” Dancing Queen”
“Take A Chance On Me”
“SOS”
“Thank You For The Music”

by ABBA

 

Ending on a high note, send everyone off with mini bottles of ouzo or boxes of Greek loukoumia as wedding favors. They’ll be reminded of all the fun they had at your Mamma Mia-inspired celebration.
